OK Hillary,..bring the Bus around now.....Obama is waiting....

Hillary Clinton sought to shift blame for the messes in Libya and Syria Thursday, suggesting the chaos in those two Arab Middle Eastern countries was President Barack Obamas fault. Criticized by Sanders for spearheading the push to overthrow Libyan dictator Muammar Qaddafi, Clinton defended her actions and noted that it was Obama, not she, who ultimately made the call to intervene.
Sanders acknowledged that he had voted in favor of the intervention, but then returned to his critique of Clinton's judgment.
Yes, when I was secretary of state, I did urge along with the Department of Defense and the CIA that we seek out, vet and train and arm Syrian opposition figures so that they could defend themselves against Assad, Clinton responded. The president said no. Now, that's how it works. People who work for the president make recommendations and then the president makes the decision.

(2,565 posts)She's trying to take credit for the good things and shift blame for the bad.
Bernie had the guts to stand in front of a NY audience and speak the TRUTH about Israel Palestine.
She has no spine, no positions... just an empty suit and a blank stare.

(13,390 posts)African American poverty decreased during the 90s, but it was Bernie who voted for the crime bill.
Increased poverty is Bushes fault, but the fact that less relief is available is a success because fewer people receive welfare benefits.
She portrays a rosy record from the 90s while dismissing her ugly contributions.

(5,208 posts)She touts her experience as SOS as qualifications for the presidency, but when it's convenient, she absolves herself from any responsibility.
She does not have the judgment or the character for the presidency.
And character does matter.

Major Hogwash
(17,656 posts)Just 3 short years ago she was kissy-faced with President Obama, but now she isn't sure if he is from Kenya or a Christian all over again.
But, then again, he is shifty-eyed, have any of you other guys noticed that?
